Title: Window fuzzies for 57 Custom 300
Post by: BP57CUSTOM on 2014-08-17 09:23
Does anyone sell pre-cut ready to install fuzzies for front door glass on a 2 door 57 custom 300? I don't want to do a complete weather strip job ,just the fuzzies.

TOP CATWHISKERS
Coming a bag for all four windows...inside and outside.  Outside ones come with clips installed (snaps).  Inner ones that go on the garnish molding were OEM fastened with staples.  Most are installed with small pop rivets.  You have to search around to find them.  Mine may have came from Steele Rubber Products.

classic auto parts in Oklahoma City sells a great quality kit that they manufacture themselves.

I stapled my inner garnish rail strips on, but as Gary said, the outers come with the snap in hardware already attached.

I installed my Top Catswhiskers yesterday morning, it was easier than I had feared it would be! Took about about an hour and a half to do both doors. I got them from Mac's the outers had the clips already installed and just popped right in, the inners used supplied staples ,I had to re-drill holes for the staples but all went well except for breaking some of the really small drill bits which I had several of already.

Good to hear. thanks for posting that. I'm curious though, do you remember if the packaging had manufacturer's logo or info on it?

If I can jump in here, all the whiskers I have used in the past ten years had the "Top Catswhiskers" on the package.  The Edsel whiskers came from Carpenter, the 65 Bird whiskers came from Larry's.  They all fit perfect.

Put up a thread on pop riveting them into the Edsel a while back.
